[Verse 1]
What if I came back home for Christmas
Would there be garland on the tree
You're filling stockings up with citrus
Are you still hanging one for me

[Chorus]
Oh but lights, the Christmas trees adorn
And you were by my side
I was home on Christmas morn'
But you weren't on my mind

[Verse 2]
And if I came back home for Christmas
I'd pin the holly on the wreath
And though we won't speak of forgiveness
Are you still holding some for me

[Chorus]
But lights, the Christmas trees adorn
And you were by my side
I was home on Christmas morn'
But you weren't on my mind

[Verse 3]
What if I came back home for Christmas
Would there be garland on the tree
What if I came back home for Christmas
Would there be garland on the tree
[Chorus]
But lights, the Christmas trees adorn
And you were by my side
I was home on Christmas morn'
But you weren't on my mind
